"In 2007 the first issue of kuš! saw the light of the day. Over time the language changed, the format shrank, and even the name somehow got shorter. While that first issue featured only a single Latvian artist, in this issue you'll find all Latvians but one. As we unite contributors both old and new in this volume, we look forward to many more years of kuš! We hope you'll stick with us through all the upcoming lows and highs. After ten colorful years it's time to celebrate! But now – "kuš!" and read!"
